Lentinus zelandicus Sacc. & Cub. 1887

[Notes from Kew Type specimen, PRJ 2010] Kew images.

Lentinus zelandicus Sacc. & Cub. 1887

Pileus thin, rather tough, cream-colour or dingy-white, glabrous, slightly striate, deeply umbilicate or funnel-shaped, 1.5-2.5 cm. across ; gills decurrent, rather distant and broad, edge quite entire, interstices even; spores pip-shaped, hyaline, 6 x 4 µ; stem 2.5-5 cm. long, very slender, with a tawny or rufescent tinge, base with pale down, rooting.
Forest of Tehawera, Northern Island, New Zealand.
On rotten logs.
Solitary, or frequently 2-5 plants springing in a caespi-tose manner. Rigid when dry. Not a typical Lentinus, on account of the entire edge of the gills.

Lentinus zelandicus Sacc. & Cub. 1887

According to Pegler (1983) the type collection comprises two small, centrally stipitate agarics which probably belong in Tricholomataceae, Clitocybeae.
